Probably any faction will get balearic slingers if etc.

[Longshanks]

Hopefully balearic slingers are in the game. I haven't seen or heard any mention of them.

I'm hoping for Baldrick slingers. Ineffective as a fighting force but experts at cunning plans.

Plans so cunning, you could stick a tail on them and call them foxes.

I always thought that you still got your income based on providences, but the providences were controlled by taking the major city. Anyway, I may be wrong, but I read that somewhere, I think on totalwar.com.

This is how provinces work as far as I understand.

There are still provinces, though they may be called regions, or hinterlands, or California.

The big difference is, of course, the open nature of movement in RTW compared to MTW.

The faction that owns that province's city collects whatever income and/or bonuses for that province.

I have not heard whether having a hostile army in your province will keep you from collecting those incomes and/or bonuses.

I imagine that besieging the province's city will keep the owning faction from collecting income but I have not heard anything official one way or the other.

Different provinces have different bonuses.

Some have gold, some have wool, some have Ted Nugent.

To establish really profitable trade routes you probably need to have something whoever you are trading with does not have.

Provinces are basically now just a way of dividing up the map, showing who controls what, displaying who gets what resources, and providing room for strategic maneuvers.
